"Analog" has been used to say "the older, pre-computer version" since for decades now. It's fine.

I mean they're still not giving it back, right? It's an important gesture, but it also doesn't really change anything.

Even in glorious Europe with socialized healthcare*, it's very easy to rack up 100k or more in liabilities. Possibly decades of lost wages, improving their homes accessibility, caretakers, damages for pain and suffering and so on. E.g., German law mandates a minimum of 7.5 million Euros of coverage.

The US healthcare system sucks, but, completely independently, these coverages just aren't enough.

*Details vary.

In later trials, drugs aren't compared against placebo, but a standard therapy regimen.

If someone hires a former Facebook employee to work on their social network, is that patent infringement?

No. If that employee then implements features that FB has patented? Probably yes.

Fuxk cars is about car dependence and culture, not about never personally using a car.

You still have a contract. But I get that it may not be worth the trouble.

This of course depends on your jurisdiction and how much time you're willing to put into this, but I'd refuse to pay for shipping either way.

You have a contract with the company, and they didn't fulfil it, that's on them. They can't just send you a defective product and make you pay for (part of) it.

I use bxactions to control play/pause (single tap), flashlight (hold when screen is locked) and auto rotation (hold when screen is on). No custom ROMs or root needed, just a quick abd command that comes with the app and disables bixby.

Happy to inform you it's actually a trilby, pleb.

The worst thing about Lemmy is it perfectly nercomanced 2010 reddit's skin-deep atheism back to life.

 

I don't know whether I'm just missing an obvious solution here, but this driving me nuts.

There's a Wikipedia article I want to create a simple map for. I need a mostly greyscale (like Positron), ~1x1km section of the map on which I want draw some lines and labels in Inkscape. If I could remove all the labels including street names that'd be great, but it's not required.

Essentially, I want the export function of openstreetmap.org, but with less cluttered styles. www.printmaps.net would be exactly what I'm looling for, but their free tier watermarks the image and the license is too restrictive for Wikimedia Commons.

There's a ton of programs available on the wiki, but all of them seem to require at least some coding skills, which I don't have. I've already learned to use inkscape for some other illustrations, I'm not going down that rabbit hole again for Wikipedia.

Is there a simple, preferably web-based, tool that allows me to import or choose a style, use a GUI to select an area and then just save that as an image?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
